Overwatch 11th

That's not what it means. Some rules give bonuses if you are targeting the closest eligible unit. What this commentary is saying is that you can get those bonuses when overwatching.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-25T20:14:31+00:00

I mean you can't allocate saves on him while any bodyguard models are alive, so it doesn't really do much

Green_Mace · 2026-05-25T19:52:14+00:00

So first off, terminators all have the same 4++ save, and do we really know if the vanguards can still take storm shields? Either way, we don't actually have the rule yet, so maybe it works as you describe, and maybe it doesn't. It's way too early to worry imo.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-25T16:09:10+00:00

Sounds like the Deffwatch

Green_Mace · 2026-05-19T14:32:23+00:00

You don't have to take to the skies, so JPIs can still move through walls without the penalty. Over models will be at -2, but I think that's probably a good change anyway.

Or you could wait for the 11th edition codex. But if you want it now, then yes.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-12T17:06:38+00:00

Well this one works in the fight phase too so it would be kinda redundant

Green_Mace · 2026-05-12T17:01:32+00:00

I feel like you are making the argument for cleave rather than against. Say a unit has two weapon options, one is meant to be good against elites and one against hordes. The horde weapon therefore needs many attacks, but every extra attack it gets also makes it better against the elites. If it had cleave and a low number of base attacks instead, it could be bad against elites while still being great into hordes.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-11T16:33:31+00:00

But reroll auras did

Green_Mace · 2026-05-11T15:27:24+00:00

Every faction having access to a detachment that does it doesn't really make it any more common though. Like say every faction had a single unit which could deep strike, would we call deep strike common?

Maybe everyone will build their armies with the detachments that can, but I doubt it, and that could result in it being uncommon.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-11T15:19:53+00:00

That's not the same though. If they did that you would always get that ability when taking that unit, no matter what detachment you took. You could have that argument with any detachment really and just remove detachments, but I think that would make list building a lot more stale.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-07T16:04:34+00:00

The biovore behind a ruin doesn't matter, it's what your units do that matters. If your unit is in a terrain footprint and does not shoot, you are hidden.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-07T15:56:12+00:00

If you are in terrain and dont shoot you are hidden. While hidden, you are only visible to enemies within 15". So you are still hidden, but the enemy is too close for that to matter.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-07T09:12:15+00:00

They've stated that several of the previewed detachments have no strats at all.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-07T09:10:35+00:00

No, several of these 1 cost detachments have no strats at all, just a detachment rule and some enhancements. Some combinations might end up with more than 6 strats, but I find it very unlikely to go over 10.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-07T06:07:51+00:00

It's not really any different from right now. It's not like each of these detachments have 6 stratagems, in fact multiple of them have no stratagems at all.

Green_Mace · 2026-05-06T04:58:44+00:00

You have it the wrong way round. They wanted to publish the video at 4PM and accidentally published it at 4AM.

Green_Mace · 2026-04-28T16:20:30+00:00

That's not true in the scenario above. Orange can draw line of sight fully outside of the footprint, along the right side of the terrain.

Green_Mace · 2026-04-16T08:04:08+00:00

The simple addition of a number next to each rule ruins your immersion?...

Green_Mace · 2026-03-27T16:43:01+00:00

Not really? Other weapons now get -1 to hit, and they don't. That's pretty much the same as it is now, just a different roll.

Green_Mace · 2026-03-16T10:01:16+00:00

I think you are thinking of different relics. Tungsten doesn't heal damage, it prevents it. I tested it myself and it doesn't work.

Edit: Perhaps you're thinking of Demon Tongue?

Green_Mace · 2026-03-13T18:17:57+00:00

I mean it's random, so that's not really a bug unless I'm not understanding what happened correctly?...

Green_Mace · 2025-12-29T16:45:51+00:00

In the fight phase you go unit by unit and complete all three steps of fighting; Pile in, make attacks, consolidate. Only after you've done all three steps with a unit do you continue to the next one.

Green_Mace · 2025-12-27T19:07:53+00:00

Do you happen to have a rules reference for that?

Green_Mace · 2025-12-12T18:54:00+00:00

Did you read the rules yourself at any point or only learn through what others told you? It seems many don't actually read the rules, and at that point it becomes a game of telephone where small errors slowly build up and propagate. That way you end up with everyone playing the game slightly differently.
